Just wanted to make an announcement to those who have used the Potosi Mountain GMRS repeater over the years. After the snow clears in a few months, this repeater will be discontinued and inactive. This GMRS repeater covers all of the Las Vegas valley and the desert areas south into Death Valley, CA. If you rely on this repeater for emergency communications, you are encouraged to seek other options.

I'm not the owner of the repeater. Since I usually monitor that frequency for off road traffic, he contacted me to let others know. I believe he said he will be swapping out the GMRS repeater to a band more commonly used. Really sad to see it go, but I understand those mountain top sites aren't cheap. If you're going to pay the fees, might as well pay for something more people would use. Although it wasn't used much, I sure did feel safer knowing it was there.
